(Sorry for the error in my previous message - here is the complete version).
Here are some additions to Ken's poster, regarding the valuables taken
from the Jewish victims of the Nazis. As one can see, the SS beasts
used everything they could take from the victims - from cash money to
underpants and hair.
While evaluating the sums involved, one has to remember that we are
talking about 50 years ago. Anyone know what a Dollar then is
equal to today?
I would also like to note that this is a very small selection of
such documments, and I am not posting the whole documents; some
of them are dozens of pages long.
